Every person entering a
clothing store is more or less
influenced by the striking
features Of the same. Every
person entering our estab-
tishment is at once amazed
at the great display we make.
While our prices cap the
climax as the most strikingly
low ever met with. All
corners are thus confronted
with the fact that we have
got the most complete and
desirable stock, and that
Prices are the Lowest.

hibition of 1889 in Paris is not favored

to be twice as high as the tower of

it will compel all eyes to gaze upon it.
A hateful column of bolted sheet iron

THE closer the appropriation bills
passed by the last Congress in the
hurry of the last moments are ex-
amined, the worse they are said to
be, according TO a recent dispatch
from Washington In fact the embar-
rassments that have arisen from the
bills passed are likely to prove almost
as great as the inconvenience arising
to the public service from the bills that
were not passed. In the case of the
District of Columbia. for instance, it
is found that the appropriations do not
fit into the grooves through which the
law requires that they should be ex-
pended. One division has twenty
thousand dollars too much money pro-
vided, another division is thirty thou
sand dollars short for the objects which
the law says must be carried out And
the same principle of giving money
where it was not wanted and with
holding it where it was most needed is
found to run through the appropria-
tions made for several of the most i'm
pstant executive departments of the
Government.

The rat threatens to be as destruc-
tive in the Neilgherries in India as the
rabbit is in Australia. The fields of
the ryots are honeycombed by them.
On estates hundreds of tea trees have
been uprooted and bushels of coffee
may be gathered that has been picked
by them. Growers of potatoes and
vegetables have had their crops de-
stroyed and residents and visitors have
experienced what pest they have be-
come in the houses. 1t is suggested
that the breeding of such birds as the
eagle, the hawk and the owl, which
prey upon rats, should be encouraged.

AN inventor proposes to arrange q
rubber stamp in the nest of every hen,
with movable date. An electric disc
is arranged, so that when the hen has
laid an egg her foot touches it, and the
stamp turns over on the ink pad and
then revolves, stamping the date on
the egg. On each evening the date of
the stamp is altered for the next day,
and there can be no cheating. The
dates tell their own story.
